About Me

Welcome to my home page!  I am currently a third year graduate student here at UD working for Murray Johnston.  I am married to a wonderful woman named Liz, and she puts up with me as I traverse through graduate school.

This is my second trip through graduate school, as I earned a Master of Science in Chemistry from Sacred Heart University in 2009.  I also received my both of my Bachelor’s degrees there (one in Chemistry, the other in Mathematics) and was a member of the wrestling team. 

Just  so you don’t think I’m in the lab all the time, I love spending time with Liz when I am home.  I also enjoy wrestling (I wrestled in college and was a state medal winner in PA during high school), martial arts, spending time with friends and family, riding my bikes, video games, and have been a avid fan of the Philadelphia Eagles and Philadelphia Phillies since childhood.
